Kim 're-elected' in N Korea vote

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

In an unsurprising result Kim was re-elected by voters in Constituency 333 with 100 per cent support, the official KCNA news agency said on Monday.



Phibes? Your thoughts?

[Mikey]

I think it's time we moved our own Kim in.

Nice camel toe.

[Dr_Phibes]

yeah, bit of an onslaught of odd, DPRK news over the past few weeks.

I'll guess that President Sooty (and Hillary) want a quick, foreign policy victory to establish legitimacy and they'll go for the DPRK. I suppose it seems the easiest - Bush and co. thought the same thing, made the big push at the end but came up empty.
They probably think they've got an inroad, as Bill Clinton did the light water reactor agreement, so their assuming a degree of trust exists.

Good luck, fuckwits - stick with the middle east and the economy.

Unsurprising my ass. What's this only 100 percent shit? Didn't it used to be higher?

...I heard his kid was taking over...what happened with that?

That was about 15 years ago, and he was the kid...

...just heard it a couple of days ago.

"Some reports have named the North Korean leader's third son, 26-year-old Kim Jong-un, as a possible successor."...from the article referenced above.

I guess they'll add a third generation to the illustrious dynasty.

no dynasty, the position of president was abolished after Kim Il Sung died. Kim Jong Il heads up the military constituancy (several years after Sungs death) - Kim Yong Nam is head of state and Kim Yong Il is premier.

checks and balances.

what I'm wondering, is why all these stories attributed to KCNA - never actually appear on KCNA?

I hear that to celebrate his victory, Kim went out and shot a 23 for 18 holes.

16

twice in the same round, the ball bounced out of the cup and into the next hole

no, that was the following day, after he had the greenskeeper put to death for faulty pin placement on the holes he failed to ace the day before.

I'd love to get a ruling on that. My guess is that the USGA would rule that "Dear Leader" would be entitled to a free drop off the green no closer to the hole and that he would be hitting his second stroke from that spot. I also suspect that were the USGA to send a rules official to the DPRK, he would be summarily executed for issuing said ruling.

[Dr_Phibes]

He's a communist, not a middle class, golf-playing wanker.
It's like saying he has people put to death whilst having his hardwood re-sanded or eating muesli.
In celebration, he probably drank a shitload of Newcastle and got in a scrap down at the polski disco.

Just for arguements sake though - if he did play golf he would be completely brilliant at it.

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

It doesn't hurt having OddJob as your caddy...

[Dr_Phibes]

See, Koreans on the golf course.
It's like horse-racing, the new arcade for the plebs. Lots of pregnant women wandering around the 9th hole smoking.
In other news, Kim Jung Il was spotted at IKEA and dissatisfied with the instuction booklet for his blork, had everyone put to death.

[Cuda]

... and a former south korean president committed suicide on account of liberal guilt

allegedly

[Lillian Vernon]

So they cloned Dear Leader?!?

Congratulations! Maybe they can send his clone here to give you personal guidance on running a totalitarian dictatorship.
